Nova Ventiphylline Forte Tablet 10's is a combination of respiratory-related medicine containing Salbutamol (bronchodilator) and Theophylline (xanthine and phosphodiesterase inhibitor). Together it helps in the management of chronic conditions of the respiratory system including asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Asthma is a breathing problem in which airways narrow, swell, and produce extra mucus, leading to difficulty in breathing. On the other hand, COPD is a group of progressive lung diseases, with emphysema (shortness of breath) and chronic bronchitis (inflammation of bronchial tubes). Initially, it may be mild, but it can lead to total blockage of airways and damage the lungs in severe cases.

Nova Ventiphylline Forte Tablet 10's is given to treat an asthma attack when it first starts (an acute attack) and for wheezing (a whistling sound during breath) induced by factors like cold or exercise.
